THE GREEN WAY with TFG

TFGeco solutions – two is better!

With our double pack TFGeco train and TFGeco truck, we enable rail and road transport to be even more environmentally friendy. Transport by rail already saves up to 80% CO₂e compared to transport by truck. But we are going one step further.

Eco-friendly in the network

As we continue to expand our network, we are consistently shifting more and more freight from road to rail, thereby actively protecting the environment. We are continuously working on integrating further connections into our AlbatrosExpress network.

Shhhh – we make it quite

Freight cars’ brakes conventionally work with brake blocks made of cast iron, which roughen the running surfaces of the wheels. This makes for a very noisy train passing by.

Instead of these, we use whisper brakes that reduce rail noise as much as possible, which protects residents and the environment from noise pollution.

Our Driver App: Digital. Efficient. Sustainable.

With our paperless driver app, we are consistently advancing digitalization in combined transport. It digitizes key transport processes, creates transparency along the supply chain, and at the same time reduces resource consumption—simply by eliminating paper-based transport orders, around 1.5 million sheets of paper are saved each year.

Focus on digitalization – e-invoicing

We are declaring war on paper waste – together with our customers! We offer our customers the option of electronic invoicing. This enables us to save on paper invoices, printer cartridges and shipping materials.

Digital on course – paperless train

We are striving to eliminate paper waste. Printing kilograms of paper, only to have it end up in the recycling bin, goes against our corporate philosophy of sustainability.

Focus on digitalization – backoffice

We are declaring war on paper waste - internally as well! That's why we are largely reducing printed materials, such as files, receipts or even our pay slips, and are also doing away with our paper pay slips in favor of digital solutions.

Happy bees by TFG – bee sponsorship

The number of bees in Germany has been steadily declining for decades. Even though they are protected by the Federal Nature Conservation Act due to their importance for biodiversity, suitable habitats are becoming increasingly rare, especially for wild bees. By looking after bees, we are actively working to combat bee mortality and to conserve nature and wildlife.

We say “Yes!” to green electricity

As part of our TFGreen strategy, alongside our external activities, we have also anchored internal measures at the core of our ecological actions. This means that every TFG colleague makes an important contribution to our environmentally friendly company on a daily basis. We take our social responsibility seriously and would like to do even more.

Plastik-Werbegeschenk? Nein, danke!

Jeder kennt sie – die Werbemittel, die es auf Messen und Veranstaltungen gibt. Dabei stapeln sich zu Hause meist die Plastik-Werbekugelschreiber und USB-Sticks schon. Und genau hier setzen wir an. Wir wählen unsere Werbemittel bewusst aus und achten dabei auf eine nachhaltige Herstellung sowie auf die Verwendung nachhaltiger Materialien.

We are certified

We want to become better - preferably each and every day. It is important to us not only to fulfill our own expectations, but also to meet widely accepted environmental requirements.

To this end, we have created an environmental management system in accordance with ISO 14001, the international standard for environmental management.
